Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps her Department is taking to support consumers to switch to electric vehicles.

The Government has committed £7.5 billion over the next decade to support industry and the public as they transition to zero emission vehicles.

This includes the £2 billion Electric Car Grant, which has already supported over 80,000 drivers who have benefited from discounts of up to £3,750 across more than 40 models. This also includes the £600 million funding to support the rollout of charging infrastructure, with 118,321 public chargers installed already as of 1 March 2026.
